Only reason this is expensive is because they aren't supplied by LEGO. They have to literally go to stores and buy shit loads of legos to make the actual lego. Also, there are tons of buyers around the country, this is why they cost so much.
I wouldn't ever pay for something this price. now, if they sold instructions, I would buy them. but they decide to buy Lego bricks, make the sets, then ship them, which skyrockets the price. this set looks great, but not 395 dollars great
The real reason they need to price it so high is because you have to remember it’s takes let’s say 10 days to design the tank then 4 days to get the kits ready plus the boxes, and instructions. Let’s say they pay $11 minimum wage (probably more for their designers) and they have 4-6 people for 1 kit so 14 times 11 times 6 is how much it costs to pay staff for labor plus the pieces themselves (around 10 cents a piece) (average) and they need to MAKE money NOT lose money
I have this tank, and compared to the actual Ausf H the top main hatch looks kinda weird... but I guess for accuracy and to fit a figure in, they had to make it squarish
I know this is super picky but the figure it comes with is actually an artillery officer because his lapels are red...they should be pink for the tank battalions
Working and saving up. I agree they are expensive but when you look at LEGO sets some are just as or if not more expensive. So I choose to pay the same for a beautifully designed custom kit
Lol, I probably have 90% of these parts, and the ones I don have, I could get off of brick link for less than 20$. Talk about expensive. As for the instructions, there are countless pdf's of them. Still a really great model though.
um... you mean dark grey? Dark grey is pretty much the easiest color to find for me xD. There are barely and specialty pieces. I can make decals myself, those are easier than making the tank.
The tiger had 80 mm of side and rear armour making the tank vulnerable from the flanks but the us thought that the rear was thinner due to the panzer 1 through 5 had thinner side and rear armour. The best defence from a tiger was to call us British after june 6th 1944 due to our firefly and its ability to do what your generals lesley mcnair and patton were too naive to do, mount a much better gun to a tank
+Adam Mendoza ya that's true. But if you look at some of the new stares da sets, they are ridiculous. "Encounter on jakku" Its flat out joke. a LEGO set that is that small and $60 is just outrageous. I would rather buy a custom, accurate, ww2 jeep than a Lego set that is just the same in size. Yes, I know you can buy a 12 gauge with that, and that's actually not a bad idea. But this has been my dream to have since I was a kid. I love ww2 history, I have my whole life. I bet you had something you wanted your entire childhood and life. A lot of kids do. So for me, that was my situation.
Kids entertainment television Tv I agree, I ended up recreating a Brickmania model in stud.io and checked the price on bricklink, a 55 dollar kit came out to 5 bucks, 11 with shipping.
Wrecker Reviews and I trade instructions like I traded the hellcat instructions for the Maus and then I ordered the Maus parts for $150 which is so much better than their $650 price tag
MLG HotPockets True, however you don't pay for the tank much, but for the time it took to design, the stickers, the box and the manual. That's why they don't put the instructions for free online. You could build this for 1/3th of the price.
CUSTOMBRICKS.de makes sets just as great as Brickmania and they are 1/3 the price. They might not have brickarms weapons in their sets but they are still good looking and very well made
Kevin W the manual is probably the only thing worth anything. The tank is terribly made, during the review it fell apart like five times and sticker don't cost much
Nah, the cobi Tiger looks like shit, same with the panther and a lot of their WWII tanks. But they are way cheaper than Brickmania. But please understand why Brickmania is so expensive.

Karl Marx they order prices from lego they don’t go to stores
*pieces
bricklink exists too y'know?
I wouldn't ever pay for something this price. now, if they sold instructions, I would buy them. but they decide to buy Lego bricks, make the sets, then ship them, which skyrockets the price. this set looks great, but not 395 dollars great
I Got instructions
Michael Salvatierra I’ll trade for them I have Cromwell and all the bulge instructions

@@Boz196 hi, i would like to trade your cromwell instructions. i have the king tiger, maus and A12 Matilda.

Thanks! My content is dry but hopefully ill be up and running too
CrusaderBricks WHY THE FUCK HAVE YOU NOT UPLOADED YOU PIECE OF SHIT
Thank you so much for showing the underside of the top part, my screenshots will be put to good use

The red pieces are the fuel tanks, not part of the engine.
Where are you now
I have this tank, and compared to the actual Ausf H the top main hatch looks kinda weird... but I guess for accuracy and to fit a figure in, they had to make it squarish
No ones ever really gone...
Only time I buy from brickmania is when there are sales I got the Cromwell for pretty much half price
You should do more brickmania reviews great job!
Do you still have the tank, I am looking to buy one at a good price
Never mind I made my own version in Stud.io of this: ~$94
Really enjoy your content keep it up and continue to make more videos
I know this is super picky but the figure it comes with is actually an artillery officer because his lapels are red...they should be pink for the tank battalions
Great review! i have been waiting for this.
Thanks!
how much longer till next uplaod?
How in the world do you afford so many Brickmania kits?!?!? I love Dan's kits, but they're so insanely expensive
Working and saving up. I agree they are expensive but when you look at LEGO sets some are just as or if not more expensive. So I choose to pay the same for a beautifully designed custom kit
CrusaderBricks yeah but with those Lego sets you actually get what you paid for.
Can you make more videos plz
Very detailed review
395 freaking $ Even the ps4 is less expensive
Tiger 1 from Cobi in Europe Cost like 30£ and in poland it Costs like 11£
I wish I can get it ;(
I SEE U EVERYWHERE LOL
DatOneAsianKid Buy tiger 1 from cobi for 30$
Very nice kit.
where do you get the money to buy these kits
Drugs
+Nefariano lol
NOT drugs rubbing ur butt over girls gets u that dough! $$$$$$$$$$
jk lel
I like your tank too
Lol, I probably have 90% of these parts, and the ones I don have, I could get off of brick link for less than 20$. Talk about expensive. As for the instructions, there are countless pdf's of them. Still a really great model though.
MartianProductions yes but get every part in that colour (some special coloured bricks can cost 3$)
um... you mean dark grey? Dark grey is pretty much the easiest color to find for me xD. There are barely and specialty pieces. I can make decals myself, those are easier than making the tank.
MartianProductions it has been confirmed before that the exact couloirs they use make some bricks 7 dollars
where can I find those pdf's mate?
You can’t find the PDFs... that’s the point. Brickmania is constantly going around getting webpages removed for posting instructions
The tiger had 80 mm of side and rear armour making the tank vulnerable from the flanks but the us thought that the rear was thinner due to the panzer 1 through 5 had thinner side and rear armour. The best defence from a tiger was to call us British after june 6th 1944 due to our firefly and its ability to do what your generals lesley mcnair and patton were too naive to do, mount a much better gun to a tank
The barrel seems too small to me. Don't know about you guys
Great video honestly, but you could have saved around 300 dollars to get a Cobi tiger ausf H, I know there a small company trying but its outrageous
Two words. Quality over quantity
+CrusaderBricks you do know there parts quality is just as good as Lego's and megabloks right
+CityBoy I have had their parts/sets and personally from my experience I do not like their part quality compared to LEGO
Fernando madrigal he is talking about cobi's sets and their bricks. Btw it a much better deal than brickmanias rip offs
$
Anyone wanna trade instructions
I think that mechanized bricks Tiger I is better. Both in quality and price.
panther is the creature on the side
Becky Carwile wrong thats a tiger
That's 395 dollars! I know it's hard get the parts and stuff but that is WAY over priced.
awesome dudes
Nice video
Thanks!
I'm sad that ur dead:(
TaKtik TileS same
The Fencing Turtle yeah, he use to be great
TaKtik TileS what do you mean?
Nyrad :D I think he means his channels dead.
Papa Shrek Daddy lol
I liked the video nice one
Are you a millionaire
yeah...me 2
If these were just fake Lego pieces like cobi it would just be like $40
A Loser Is Triggered but they aren’t, and that’s why I have spent over 700$ on this stuff. Well worth it.
Ahhhh, 395 dollars ??
Nice vid
high quality👌
I love that tank but it's way too expensive
Some of LEGO's sets can be just as expensive. Luckily for me I got mine on a sale.
+CrusaderBricks pretty expensive considering that you can get a 12 gauge shotgun around the same price...
+Adam Mendoza ya that's true. But if you look at some of the new stares da sets, they are ridiculous. "Encounter on jakku" Its flat out joke. a LEGO set that is that small and $60 is just outrageous. I would rather buy a custom, accurate, ww2 jeep than a Lego set that is just the same in size. Yes, I know you can buy a 12 gauge with that, and that's actually not a bad idea.

So for me, that was my situation.
+CrusaderBricks true, wish brickmania would bring back the panther
+Adam Mendoza ya I have wanted that for a while. I think they might remake it with newer LEGO pieces

$400?! Nope. Never happening.
Gimme gimme gimme
Yeah the animal on the sticker is a tiger it's logical becouse the tanks is called tiger
the prices on brickmania are a total ripoff , the prices range from 100 to 300 dollars!!!!!!!!!!
exactly, they don't get their pieces from lego. they pay for all the parts from bricklink.
Kids entertainment television Tv I agree, I ended up recreating a Brickmania model in stud.io and checked the price on bricklink, a 55 dollar kit came out to 5 bucks, 11 with shipping.
Wrecker Reviews that’s why I don’t buy any kits I only buy their instruction books
Wrecker Reviews and I trade instructions like I traded the hellcat instructions for the Maus and then I ordered the Maus parts for $150 which is so much better than their $650 price tag
Are you interested in trade?
I would never buy something from brickmania... waaaaaay too expensive and I could just build something myself for much cheaper of a price
MLG HotPockets True, however you don't pay for the tank much, but for the time it took to design, the stickers, the box and the manual.
That's why they don't put the instructions for free online.
You could build this for 1/3th of the price.
CUSTOMBRICKS.de makes sets just as great as Brickmania and they are 1/3 the price. They might not have brickarms weapons in their sets but they are still good looking and very well made

MLG HotPockets i agree wayyyy to exspinsive
MLG HotPockets ye
cobi rules
Nah, the cobi Tiger looks like shit, same with the panther and a lot of their WWII tanks. But they are way cheaper than Brickmania. But please understand why Brickmania is so expensive.
Filthy Succ brickmania fanboy..... Cobi looks for the price awesome, I have the tiger from cobi and I love it
Fuck brickmania and cobi I just build my own models. (Though i still like cobi much much more than brickmania)
Señor Fluffy price yeah, models brickmania
Overpriced
